Marilyn Green recently photographed a Common Buckeye Butterfly.

Several days later Marlee Little photographed Common Buckeye caterpillars. Here's a photo of one of them.

I learned from Ron LeValley that this butterfly breeds nearly all year long so it's not unusual to see both the caterpillars and the butterflies at the same time.

A flashier cousin of Common Buckeyes - Monarchs - are migrating through our area now.

Thanks to Marilyn and Marlee for allowing me to share their photos with you here.

A Ling Cod watches over her eggs and protects them from predators. So how did these eggs come to be washed up on a beach? Marilyn Green photographed them, and a Gull that was feasting on them.

What a strange-looking moth Marilyn Green saw. Will Ericson identified as an Autographa Moth.

Do you see the face on the back of this moth? I sure do. These moths are nectar feeders.
